Something to Automatically Bind Quest Items
It would be nice to have a addon that automatically binds quest items so they are easier to use. For me it would just be a preference of choosing to keybind over clicking, but it would also be a tremendous help for people using laptops with no mouse. If this addon is out there please inform me because I can't find one.

The scope is a little wider, but IHML is great for this sort of thing.

Why not simply drag-n-drop the quest item you need to use to an action bar and keybind it?
If you don't want to do that, Carbonite's quest watcher list has small buttons next to any quest that has usable quest items. ;) |
I'd suggest either Opie or AutoBarMuffin. Both can build dynamic lists of click-to-use quest items and make them available via a hotkey.
|
Let's not forget QBar as it's my personal favorite, it also has optional ButtonFacade support. It allows you to add a key-bind to it but it's a little flaky.
There is also QuestClicks which seems a lot more robust, with the extra added ability to manually add or remove specific items from showing on the bar, via the in-game interface. Currently no key-bind support but the author has stated that is a soon to come feature. |

Quite the necrobump (4 years man), but, you're in luck.
I've been working on this for Warlords of Draenor beta, and it seems to work well so far. It basically replicates the ExtraActionButton, but for quest items. It even uses the same keybinding! If you have a quest that provides an item to use for a quest, it will show a button. If you have multiple quests, it will show the one you are closest to the center of. The minimum range you have to be to the center of the quest is currently 250 yards, but that is not final. Give it a whirl, I'll make sure to upload it here on Wowinterface once WoD is out and I'm sure it's stable enough for public release. https://github.com/p3lim-wow/ExtraQuestButton |
Not sure what there is to update, but I don't use an addon for this; I just use the following macro to use whatever item is displayed first in the quest tracker:
/click WatchFrameItem1I have it bound to Alt-Q but you could also just drop it on any action button if you don't like "hidden" keybinds. This of course depends on you having automatic quest tracking turned on so the items are actually shown in the tracker, and you may also want to sort the tracked quests by proximity. |
Although that works, it has some downsides compared to what I've been working on:
- Depends on the WatchFrame and the proximity setting (which I've personally found to be far from reliable) - Because of this, if there is just one quest higher up it doesn't work (I think) - Doesn't show the item in the macro nor the cooldown - Install any addon that replaces the WatchFrame and it won't work - Not future-proof (you'll need a new one for the expansion because of the changes) - Yet another keybinding |

The only reason I suggested proximity-based sorting (personally I don't use it) is because occasionally you might have more than one quest with an item to use, so proximity sorting will help prevent situations where the item you want to use isn't the first one listed. Quote:

You'll see how it works when you get a quest with an item, the keybinding is the same as the "Extra Action" in the normal keybinding window. |
